I have an absolute positioned div that is with a z-index of like 1000 so that it`s over all the elements of the page, but the checkboxes keep poping out in IE, in FF it works fine.

I have an absolute positioned div that is with a z-index of like 1000 so that it`s over all the elements of the page, but the checkboxes keep poping out in IE, in FF it works fine.
Which IE version? I'm pretty sure the problem is fixed in IE7.
Anyway, IE6 and lower used system widgets for many controls. The problem is that these widgets are in their own windows and thus could not respect z-index settings even if they wanted.
In other words, the problem cannot really be solved. It can be worked around by detecting when a checkbox is covered and hiding it completely with visibility:hidden. This is complicated, though. The common strategy is to avoid the problem by not trying to place floating elements over any controls.
